The Luttrell Psalter are stories and images that portray the lives of peasants, priests, and kings of that era. The Luttrell Psalter was not the first to include scenes of rustic life in the 14^th century, but it is exceptional in their number and fascinating detail. It contrasts the two immensely different lives of those of the high class and the low class. What makes the Luttrell Psalter such a unique document is the fact that it describes through paintings the lives of those who had to work for lords to make a living. The piece of art is a primary source because it’s the closest picture that we can find from that era.
